Vehicles that were repaired under that recall also require this repair.

Why it matters

A seat belt pretensioner that explodes could create a risk of injury.

What the dealer will do

Genesis will notify owners by mail and instruct you to bring your vehicle to a dealership to install protective caps over the driver and front passenger's seat belt pretensioners, as necessary.
